I've been working for the last coupe of weeks on a plugin for OBS for top-down camera views that can detect the location of physical marker cubes in the scene and then auto zoom and crop into that region of the screen.  Tons of options to control how it works.
Might be useful for people who use top-down camera views to show details of items.

Great work mouser! I bet this will be very useful to lots of people doing live streams. From watching the videos above, I like the smooth transitions and especially the tacticle aspect of controlling the camera with two small physical objects instead of fiddling with a keyboard or other controls on the side.

Thanks guys! I'm not sure how useful they will be for others but I've had a lot of fun (and some long sessions of utter despair and frustration) learning to code for OBS.

What is OBS?  Is it one of Mouser's apps? 

EDIT:  It must be this:  https://obsproject.com/

Even though I probably will never have a use for this, this is an extremely clever program and solution.  Very very cool, mouser.  :up: :up: :up:
